"Originally, the people of the ten great families also planned to collect it extensively, but that thing is very rare. It can only be ingested at the bottom of the sea. Once it leaves the sea and is brought ashore, it will turn into a useless puddle of water."
"Therefore, once the female mermaids of the ten great families become pregnant, they are escorted to the bottom of the sea to take that thing, and then brought back to their families. Gongsun Wan'er only went there once when she was in her belly. That old man really has no shame. He can say such things."
Tianning nodded, feeling that he had learned something very important.
Gongsun Liu fell silent, and it was the head of the Gongsun family who spoke: "Please, Senior Long Han, do not speak recklessly. The Dragon Clan is so noble that we have no time to admire them. How could we possibly do anything detrimental to the Dragon Clan?"
Long Han coldly replied, "I doubt you would dare!"
“It’s just that things haven’t been peaceful in the Western Continent lately. Not only have there been repeated provocations against the authority of the Four Holy Temples, but a few days ago, strange phenomena suddenly occurred in the Heavenly Weeping Immortal Venerable’s Palace, and someone attempted to assassinate him… According to the information I’ve received, in order to deal with those audacious assassins, the Immortal Venerable personally took action to chase after the fleeing person, and that person seems to have escaped to the Mermaid Sea…” Patriarch Gongsun continued, “The main reason for sending Wan’er with Senior Long Han is because we’re worried that you’re unfamiliar with the area. She’s from the Mermaid Clan, so she can speak up if anything happens.”
Of course, there was also a selfish reason: his Lian'er had been kidnapped by people from the Eastern Continent and taken there. The Gongsun family head was very anxious, but he could not get away due to family affairs. He could send Gongsun Wan'er to check on Lian'er's whereabouts.
"No need. Any fool who dares to offend my Dragon Clan is asking for trouble!" Long Han waited for a while, and only replied himself when Tian Ning did not respond.
Tianning: "..."
Tian Ning had a vague premonition of something.
In this situation... everyone is heading to the Mermaid Sea. If you're lucky and don't run into anyone, that's fine. But if you're unlucky and everyone bumps into each other, it'll definitely be a huge headache!
No, she had to get there quickly, find Tao Tao and her senior brothers and sisters, and then make a run for it.
So, what Gongsun Chen originally thought would be a leisurely journey was changed to flying on a sword, and at a crazy high speed!
"Tianning, huff huff huff...you...slow down your huff huff huff..."
On the sword flying in mid-air, Tian Ning held Tian Dao in one hand and Gongsun Chen in the other, followed by Long Han, whose spiritual power was almost exhausted. However, even though he used all his strength, he still couldn't catch up with Tian Ning's absurd speed!
No, is she in a hurry to be reincarnated? Why the rush?
Moreover, she was leading two others while flying solo. If he didn't know how terrifyingly strong this brat was, Long Han would have become depressed and wondered if it was his own problem!
That's great! What used to be a two- or three-day journey has been reduced to just two hours.
The key point is that when they arrived at their destination, Tianning wasn't even out of breath, and looked like he was about to jump into the sea immediately: "Let's go, let's go!"
Long Han, whose spiritual energy had been completely drained and who wanted to lie down on the ground without caring about his image: "..."
Gongsun Chen, feeling dizzy and nauseous from the bumpy ride, thought: "..."
The two felt like they were about to faint, but thankfully the Heavenly Dao intervened and said something sensible: "Ningning, do you want to rest for a while?"
"Then you guys rest here first, I'll go down and find someone, and we'll meet here later." Tianning was in a hurry. Based on her extensive experience reading countless books, she knew that such a coincidence of everyone gathering together couldn't be anything good.
Just in case anything happens, Tianning had Tiandao follow Long Han and Gongsun Chen, as it would be safer that way.
There's no question about the will of Heaven; after all, if something really happens, the danger level is much higher for those around Tian Ning.
With the Gongsun family's documents, the guards stationed around the sea area did not make things difficult for Tianning and let him pass directly.
After taking the pill that allowed her to breathe in the sea, Tianning went into the sea. Gongsun Chen told her which area the mermaids lived in, and Tianning swam along the route.
The closer Tianning got to the merfolk's habitat, the more he could feel the decay.
It's strange, what exactly happened here?
The merfolk's habitat is easy to spot. To prevent malicious humans from entering, they have set up a large array around it. A giant, azure barrier envelops the entire merfolk city. Tianning can see traces of the merfolk from afar, but there are not many of them.
